How can I install the driver for My Passport WD External HDD 500GB online?

It is a "plug-and-play" device, and Windows XP/Vista/7 are "plug-and-play-aware" systems.
So, just connect it, and Windows should recognize it.

Are you getting any error-messages?

Sata drive is not recognized by os during new install

When installing XP or Vista you get the option to load third party drivers for unknown devices. I think it's F6 just after the start of any version of Windows, once you press this you will have to supply the drivers for the Windows installation. This will make Windows recognise the hdd from then on.

Usb device not recognize

You mentioned that you uninstalled the unknown device from the Device manager. If you uninstall it then connected your usb flash drive you will see an error again on your device manager. This means that the driver for your usb port is not properly installed.

To install it, visit dell website, look for the model of your machine and locate the driver, download it then install from your machine.

No vista drivers

You should download the driver for Windows XP, unzip it (if not specified otherwise C:\temp\cs330_XP).

I guess that if you say the camera doesn't work it means you already tried to connect it to the USB in your computer. If so, right-click on "My Computer" and click on "Manage". Go to "Device Manager (under "System Tools"). You should see there a device named "Unknown Device". Double click on it and go to the Driver tab. click "Update driver..." and select "Browse my computer for driver software". Now, select the location you unzipped the driver to (as said before, usually C:\temp\cs330_XP) and click next until windows will try to install the driver. This can take from a few seconds to a few minutes. After a while (for me it took about 2.5 minutes so be patient) windows should say the installation was succesful.
Enjoy :-)
